Contents:

1. Getting oriented

2. The maya Interface and modeling concepts in maya

3. Modeling, creating materials, and rendering

4. Hierarchies of objects, a polygon example, detailed polygon modeling, and a NURBS example

5. Materials, bump maps, lights, projection versus normal textures, connecting NURBS surfaces, and layered textures

6.Particle dynamics

7. A first look at adding animation

8. The fuzzy border between modeling and animating

9. Light fog, fluids, and another look at materials

Summary: "Accessible to art, engineering, computer science, and film students and professionals, this text provides a concise, principles-based introduction to 3D animation. It emphasizes the process for creating animated projects in a nonmathematical fashion. The text focuses on how to carry out this process with Autodesk Maya, the gold standard in 3D animation. Each chapter introduces a critical aspect of the 3D animation process and guides readers through simple, step-by-step tutorials that link key principles to Autodesk Maya techniques. "
